And, is it possible to rename a desktop quickly, in order to make it match the task I'm doing at a certain time ? Thanks in advance

Starting with 4.5 it's also possible to add/remove desktops in the desktop grid effect. I'm not aware of a shortcut, but it's possible that one exists. For fast renaming I am not aware of any other method except the config module
